Deputy Director of Internal AuditUniversity

An opportunity has become available in the University’s Internal Audit service for The Deputy Director Role.

We are looking to expand our internal audit team with a motivated and competent individual. The successful candidate will be able to quickly adapt to Higher Education environment, and effectively perform risk-based, and control-based internal audits.

The University’s Internal Audit Service is highly regarded throughout the University and is well placed to have a significant positive impact on the future direction of the University. The role is varied and interesting, and will involve:

Planning, carrying out, and reviewing internal audits in the following areas:

Systems processes and controls;

Governance;

Risk management;

Value for money

You will also manage the tracking and monitoring of implementation of management actions, to ensure they have been appropriately and effectively implemented.

You may be asked to assist on ad hoc investigations.

We are a University with campuses in three countries (UK, China and Malaysia) so international travel is a possibility.

We are looking for a CCAB qualified or equivalent candidate with professional services experience (internal audit, external audit or advisory). Whilst Higher Education internal audit experience is desirable, we are looking for a candidate with the right skills and behaviours to be successful, so this is not a pre-condition of application.

This is a permanent full-time post, however job share arrangements and part time applications will be considered.

Your working hours will be 36.25 hours per week. If you are interested in part-time work (minimum 21.75 hours per week), we encourage you to apply. Please specify your preferred hours in your application. We may also consider job share arrangements.
